Public Records Request
In accordance with the amended state public records law, Chapter 121 of the Acts of 2016, the Douglas Public School District has designated Lauren Tibbetts, Executive Assistant to the Superintendent, as the person responsible for responding to public records requests.
 
Ms. Tibbetts may be contacted at: 508–476-7901 or via e-mail at: [email protected].
 
The duties of the Records Access Officer (RAO) are established by statute and include:
• Coordinating the School District’s response to public records requests;
• Assisting individuals who seek records to identify the records sought;
• Preparing, posting online and periodically updating guidelines to enable the public
   to make informed public records requests; and
• Documenting, in compliance with c. 66 § 6A(e), specific information about each request
   made for public records.
 
Please contact the RAO in writing regarding public records requests for documents pursuant to A Guide to the Massachusetts Public Records Law, as published by William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth. See the new provisions for the Updated Public Records Law effective January 1, 2017.
 
 
NOTE: Records will generally be provided in electronic format within 10 business days barring an exception. In this case, the Records Access Officer will contact the requestor with an explanation for the delay and a good faith estimate of any fees that may be charged for the production of the records and a reasonable timeframe for when the records will be provided, which generally will not exceed 25 business days from the initial request.
